The weekend couldn't have been better. Sweden enjoyed near perfect weather with bright blue Scandinavian skies and gentle warm breezes. Feeling well fed and happy, I ventured to Trädgårdsföreningen in the city center to take in the stunning celebration of the Garden Society's tulip explosion. Tulpantid runs thru May 18, 2014. www.tradgardsforeningen.se Text and photo: Lisa Mikulski
